I think fate or sheeps were trying to solve our problems were trying to become a more stable country and we have the means to do it but with these type of cases all the work force to reach durable peace are put into question its not the 1st country to be surprised by a foreign investor claims these treaties are like a ticking time bomb for taxpayer sooner or later they so theres not a lot of public discussion of these cases not i dont as well likewise i have a column in the newspaper and i try to open the gate but the only thing i got from them was about her money and ignorance thats because its embarrassing to the trade department to see these treaties that they negotiated.
